I Need To Get Out Of My Way

The biggest obstacle I have to overcome to achieve my goals and reach my dreams has nothing to do with the wreckage of my past, the state of the economy or any other situation that seems stacked against me. The simple truth is that the thing that is most in my way is myself. How I react to the situations in my life, including my past, how I let my fears and ignorance of how to accomplish what I need to overwhelm me and slow me down are far more a problem than anything outside myself. My selfishness, self-centeredness and active practicing of character defects all get in the way of my doing the next right thing well enough to see the fruits I so desire in my life. But while the biggest obstacle is me, the answer lies with me as well. If I do not let myself get in my own way, if I continue to do the next right thing even when I do not want to, if I stay surrendered to my Higher Power and allow Him to do to me, through me and for me the things He wants to do, then there is nothing that I need to accomplish that will be impossible for me to do so.
